William Wallace formed his own army to resist English rule and fight for Scotland's independence from oppressive English governance. Motivated by the harsh treatment of Scots under King Edward I, Wallace sought to unite his fellow countrymen against tyranny and reclaim their freedom. His leadership galvanized a movement that aimed to restore Scotland's sovereignty and protect its people from exploitation.

The real William Wallace did not wear a kilt. Historically, kilts weren't even around until the sixteenth century, and William Wallace was born in approximately 1272. I went to Scotland a couple of years ago, and while I was on a bus tour the guide told me William Wallace would have been too poor to have his own kilt, even if they had existed then. He told me that, like most other Scotsmen of that era, he would have worn trousers with a long shirt belted around the waist, or something like that.
William Wallace was captured in August 1305 due to a betrayal by one of his own countrymen, Sir John de Menteith. Wallace was lured to a meeting under the pretense of negotiating with the English, and de Menteith, loyal to the English crown, informed the authorities of Wallace's location. He was arrested near Glasgow and subsequently handed over to the English, leading to his execution later that year.

There is no historic record that William the Conquerer killed anyone personally with his own hands. At the Battle of Hastings in 1066 William's invading army killed many defenders of England in the army of King Harold.
Difficult question, it really is not know if Wallace was married or not,, even his own birth date is not certain and is quoted as being between 1260 and 1278.. However Marion Braidfute has been suggested.

Wallace was executed by Edward I. He was condemned as a traitor, and thus given the normal English punishment meted out to traitors: being hanged, drawn, and quartered. However, unlike most traitors, he was dragged through the streets for hours tied to horses' tails. Hanging, drawing and quartering means being hung with an agonizingly slow rope then the executioner rips out the still-beating heart. He was also castrated at the point of death.
